Iar Isaac, nepoata sa gemena de sase ani si nepot din relatia lui Adrian cu jurnalistul si fostul model Nicola Formby, in varsta de 48 de ani.
Nici el nu a contactat-o pe mama sa, Yvonne Gilan, un antrenor de voce si actrita in varsta de 82 de ani.
Astazi, la fel ca fiecare membru al familiei Gill, ea se agata totusi de speranta ca se va intoarce intr-o zi.
„Este un mister, dar cred ca este inca in viata”, mi-a spus Yvonne, care este cel mai bine cunoscuta pentru rolul francezului nimfoman Madame Peignoir din Turnurile Fawlty, saptamana aceasta. „Am vorbit cu prietenii despre asta doar zilele trecute si am subliniat ca, daca esti ucis sau te sinucizi, de obicei apare un corp. ‘
Fratele lui Nick, Adrian, se refera foarte rar la el in public. El isi exprima tristetea foarte profunda pentru absenta continua a lui Nick din viata sa, dar a recunoscut si ca a maniat persistent pentru felul in care si-a abandonat familia.
O singura data, intr-o aparitie din 2006 pe Desert Island Discs, el a elaborat oarecum, amintind ca, cu ultima ocazie cand si-a vazut fratele, „au vorbit mult despre copilaria noastra”.
„De fapt a fost foarte frumos”, a spus el despre ziua respectiva. – Nu mai purtasem acest tip de conversatie de mult timp. Si i-am dat niste bani si o haina, iar asta a fost ultima pe care am vazut-o vreodata de el. ‘
Nick Gill este, de asemenea, uneori inregistrat in profilurile bucatarilor celebri de astazi. Se spune ca multi, inclusiv Marco Pierre White, Gary Rhodes si Gordon Ramsay, il considera o influenta formativa.
Criticii il recunosc ca a introdus „nouvelle cuisine” – usoara si moderna abordare traditionala a mesei franceze traditionale – intr-o scena de restaurant englezesc, care, la inceputul anilor ’80, era privita ca un desert virtual. muzeybiruch.ru
De fapt, calatoria culinara a lui Nick incepuse cu ani mai devreme, in 1974, cand avea doar 16 ani.

A deeply dyslexic child, he left London’s progressive Holland Park Comprehensive school — where his Left-wing parents had sent him — virtually unable to read or write, but with an ambition to forge a career as a chef.
He worked for three years in London, for a time at the Savoy Hotel, before moving to Paris for a further three years, rising to chef de partie — in charge of a section of the kitchen — at Maxim’s, one of the French capital’s most famous formal restaurants.
In 1980, Gill returned to the UK and was installed as head chef at Hambleton Hall, a stately home in Rutland which had been bought by Tim Hart, a merchant banker, and was being turned into a country house hotel.

So began a remarkable success story. Within weeks of opening, Hambleton began receiving extraordinary reviews. In 1982, Gill was awarded a Michelin star.
‘He was a dazzling chef with fantastic presentational skills,’ recalls Hart. ‘His food was incredibly flashy for the era, but also very grounded in flavours. He was a genius, really. ‘
A menu from the time, which I obtained this week, revolves around old-fashioned staples — saddle of lamb, or roast fillet of beef — extravagantly presented (‘sometimes, it looked like an entire garden was on the plate,’ recalls one colleague).
Many starters were served in filo pastry baskets, a now-ubiquitous technique which Gill claimed to have personally invented.
‘After the Michelin star, he became very influential,’ says Hart. ‘It was a time when lots of newspapers were launching colour supplements, and his food was so decorative that they all came to interview him; we got a huge amount of publicity. ziurim.gokas.lt
